General
This manual covers the digital monochrome progressive scan camera CM-
141MCL/141PMCL/141MCL-RA/141PMCL-RA and color progressive scan camera CB-
141MCL/141PMCL/141MCL-RA/141PMCL-RA
Hereafter, CM-141MCL/CB-141MCL will represent a whole series except for specific
descriptions.
The CM-141MCL and CB-141MCL are JAI C3 Compact series digital cameras utilizing a Mini
Camera Link interface. Both standard optical configurations (CM-141MCL/CB-141MCL) and
right angle configurations (CM-141MCL-RA/CB-141MCL-RA) are available. Also, versions with
Power over Mini Camera Link are available as CM/CB-141PMCL and CM/CB-141PMCL-RA.
The monochrome version CM-141MCL and the color version CB-141MCL provide a frame rate of
30 frames/second at full resolution of 1.45 million pixels. Using vertical binning (CM-141MCL),
or partial scan, the camera can achieve faster frame rates.
The 2/3" CCD with square pixels offers a superb image quality. The high-speed shutter
function and asynchronous random trigger mode allows the camera to capture high quality
images of fast moving objects.
The color version CB-141MCL, based on a CCD sensor with primary RGB Bayer mosaic filter,
outputs raw Bayer images.
The camera‟s internal processing is a 14-bit process. 8-bit, 10-bit or 12-bit output is available
to interface with the capture board.
The cameras also provide an Auto iris control video output.
